Article Synopsis
- * Early detection of multiple KAs is important for diagnosing underlying causes and preventing related health issues, which can improve patient quality of life and provide family counseling.
- * Current research is limited and often based on small studies, so this work aims to review existing knowledge on multiple KAs, especially linked to genetic syndromes, and to propose a diagnostic algorithm for better clinical guidance.
(1) Background: In a society with an advancing aging rate, medical systems are coming under pressure due to an increasing flow of older patients with multiple somatic diseases, exacerbated by their psychological and sociological backgrounds. We aimed to investigate the relationship between frailty and loneliness in older adults and to provide a holistic perspective on these concepts. Our research question was "Is there a link between the loneliness and frailty in older people?" (2) Methods: To assess the link between loneliness and frailty, we conducted a search accessing Index Medicus and PubMed; the timeframe of our research was from 2013 until 2023.

- * There is a noted but poorly defined connection between GD and cutaneous keratinocyte carcinomas, specifically non-melanoma skin cancers (NMSCs), with very few studies highlighting this relationship between 1983 and 2024.
- * GD has been misdiagnosed as various NMSCs, and understanding this connection could provide insights into its underlying mechanisms, possibly reclassifying GD as a unique syndrome.
Frailty is increasingly recognized as a significant health concern, particularly due to its association with cardiovascular pathologies. This study aims to examine how vascular endothelial dysfunction, a known premorbid stage in the pathophysiology of cardiovascular diseases, contributes to the link between cardiovascular illness and frailty. The inclusion criteria allowed us to focus on original clinical research articles published in English between January 2014 and January 2024, which reported quantitative assessments of the relationship between frailty and vascular endothelial dysfunction.

To assess in vivo trueness of full-arch implant-supported fixed dentures (IFD) and dental models based on conventional impressions.
Methods: In five subjects, scan-bodies were mounted to six maxillary implants and scanned three times using an industrial scanner (REF).
